British American?

Having recently read the updated Poo Poo list, something struck me about Mr. Ubiquitous, he used the British spelling of ass, arse (fifth quote down). As further evidence, he also uses the term 'mate' for friend, which is something Brits and Australians do in their slang but for North Americans tends to hold its proper meaning.

He has also been on and posted during the morning, British time, which for a New Yorker would be either very late or very early. It certainly would be if you had a day job, like say a lawyer.
Not that any of this is proof, but it does seem interesting that someone who spews American nationalism that would make George W. Bush and Bill O'Reilly blush could well be British, or at least raised here.
I'd be interested to hear other people's opinions, am I right or am I seeing something that isn't there?
